nvidia-drivers-1.0.8762-r1 on AMD64 Gentoo. The interesting thing is
that mythfrontend usage is stable, but only X goes bananas
(xorg-server-1.0.2-r7). I did keep the kernel on 2.6.16, since the ivtv
driver was giving me some hanging trouble on 2.6.17. I suppose I could
switch back to try it out.
By and large the 6150 board does the trick. I don't have HDTV, and
except for interlacing artifacts which Onefield largely gets rid of, I
don't have any complaints. Just Bob seems to drive the load so high.
